yes you would need algae for the otos, how long has the tank been set up?? You did say it was a planted tank, correct, which the otos will like.
Also you can't always see the algae that the otos eat all the time, so if it's a tank that's been around for a bit you should have some food in there for the otos.

I would say about 2-3 otos. Yes you would need algae, but you can buy Hikari's algae wafers if there is not any algae. I don't believe corys would eat algae even though they are very cute.

It's one of my older tanks; I've had it since September. I guess I'll go with ottos. Thanks.

Hi,

Get five Three-Striped Cories (Corydoras trilineatus)! They are very pretty and grow to about two inches.
